A lever position sensor assembly () has a main housing (), a lever () pivotally connected to the housing about a first axis (), and a lever position sensor (). The lever has at least a portion thereof extending outside the housing. The lever position sensor has a fixed portion () and a pivoting portion (). The fixed portion is connected to the housing. The pivoting portion is pivotally connected to the fixed portion about a second axis (). The second axis is generally parallel to the first axis. The second axis is spaced from the first axis. The lever is operatively connected to the pivoting portion of the lever position sensor such that pivoting the lever about the first axis pivots the pivoting portion of the lever position sensor about the second axis. A vehicle having a lever position sensor assembly is also disclosed.
